Gabe Vasquez and The Big Lie Strategy

The Big Lie.

That's a technique that despots use against their opponents. If they tell a lie often enough and loud enough, then people will start to believe the lie to be true.

Such is the case with hardcore leftist Rep. Gabe Vasquez. Last week, he lied that his opponent, ex-Rep. Yvette Herrell was against in vitro fertilization, which is not true and was so pointed out.

However, that hasn't stopped Vasquez from doubling down with the lie.

From the Piñon Post: 

Vasquez wrote in the melodramatic X post last week, “Extremist Yvette Herrell is in lockstep with Alabama’s Supreme Court. Republicans are taking away women’s reproductive healthcare rights & now they’re taking away the opportunity for loving couples to start a family. This is shameful & Herrell’s voting record is clear. Enough.” 

Then in a recent fundraising email ironically titled “Hypocrites,” Vasquez’s team lied again, writing, “The Alabama Supreme Court just ruled on restricting access to in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment. Gabe’s extremist opponent, Yvette Herrell, has a voting record that proves she would support measures just like this one and MORE at the national level.” 

However, Congresswoman Herrell is not against IVF. National Republican Congressional Committee spokeswoman Delanie Bomar posted that “this is a blatant lie,” sharing an article from Axios that noted the former congresswoman’s position.

“Former Reps. Mayra Flores (R-Texas) and Yvette Herrell (R-N.M.), who are running for their old seats, said in statements to Axios that they support access to IVF,” read the article.

That's not stopping Vasquez or his hard-Left backers from continuing to lie. This is an old story when it comes to socialists and communists like Vasquez. 

Back in 1981, President Ronald Reagan pointed this out about the Soviet Union:

Now, as long as they do that and as long as they, at the same time, have openly and publicly declared that the only morality they recognize is what will further their cause, meaning they reserve unto themselves the right to commit any crime, to lie, to cheat, in order to attain that, and that is moral, not immoral, and we operate on a different set of standards, I think when you do business with them, even at a detente, you keep that in mind.

Vasquez and his campaign are just following the usual communist playbook about reserving for themselves the right to lie and cheat to further their cause. Shameless.
